The Fur Coats and The Fireplaces

There was a town full of all kinds of people – some who were wealthy with money, some who were wealthy with relationships, and some who were wealthy with both. When a particularly bitter and brutal winter strikes the town, everybody does what they can to keep warm—but it’s not enough. What does one family, wealthy in both money and relationships, do to keep warm? Rabbi Leora Kaye tells the story, which she created based on a teaching from Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Kotzk.
